Winter Trees in Glass (Before and after Firing)

This is an example of painting on glass with glass frit and glassline, a glass powder suspended in a liquid medium for ease in paint application.  After applying the glass frit and glassline then firing the glass panel at full fuse to melt the glass together.

Critique of Judith Reidy's Students' Exhibition Paintings

As my students instructor I should let you know something about myself. 
I was fortunate to have had a qualified friend who  without solicitation kindly offered to critique the work for the benefit of all of you my students who have been interested in developing as artists or understanding the development of "right" thinking on art.  Follow the link at the bottom for the comments as promised at the reception.

Close up Rhonda Simonsons fine painting for Judith Reidys student show this Feb at the Greenfield Public Library

Rhonda Simonson's oil painting called the "Quiet Villa".

Rhonda Simonson " Quiet Villa" in Art Instructor Judith Reidy's Students' Exhibition

This is an oil painting created by Ronda Simonson, one of my students.  Rhonda has been painting with me for little over a year. In this painting Rhonda was working with acrylic mediums to create a textured undersurface before she began painting with oils to finish the painting. 

This is a must see painting, which will be on display at my students art exhibition at the Greenfield  Public Library near South 60th and Layton in February.

Judith Reidy's Student, Rhonda Simomson's latest piece...called "Quiet Villa"

Isn't "Quiet Villa"  just gorgeous?   THIS WILL BE ONE OF THE PAINTINGS IN instructor Judith Reidy's students' show coming up in Febuary at the Greenfield Public Library. 

Hey, you other students have great work too and need to bring it in and or call Judith about it.
